in 1953 and 1958, the
happy face was used in
promotional campaigns
for motion pictures
Lili and Gigi,
respectively.

film Lili in 1953.
The WMCA 1962
sweatshirt.
The happy face was
first introduced to
popular culture in
1962
when the WMCA radio
station in New York
ran
a competition for the
most popular radio
show
at the time, "Cousin
Brucie". Listeners who
answered their phone
"WMCA Good Guys!" were
rewarded with a "WMCA
good guys" sweatshirt
that incorporated a
happy face into its
design. Thousands of
these sweatshirts were
given away. The WMCA
smiley was yellow with
black dots as eyes,
but
it had a slightly
crooked smile instead
of a full smile, and
no
creases in the mouth. Popular with all
Jeep, Camper, Motor Home and Trailer
Owners.
